李梅樹紀念館入口

Located in the Sanxia District of New Taipei City, this memorial hall was established in April 1995 to commemorate Taiwanese painter Li Meishu and showcase his works. The hall houses a collection of Li Meishu's masterpieces and various artifacts from his life. The professor's creations primarily aim to present the beauty of Taiwan's countryside, with a realistic painting style. His most beloved works depict the scenery of Sanxia, filled with his artistic philosophy emphasizing "wind, earth, people, and emotions." However, some of his works feature uniquely special styles, such as "The Boy Teasing a Turkey," which uses a 3D technique and bears resemblance to the world-famous painting "Mona Lisa." Master Li Meishu loved his hometown of Sanxia so much that he dedicated half of his life to building the Zushi Temple, making it one of the longest-standing and intricately constructed temples in Taiwan. One of the guides in the memorial hall is the son of Master Li Meishu, who himself often appears in the paintings, adding a unique sense of fun and imagination as visitors listen to the person from the artwork explain the pieces.
